It goes so far out of its way to avoid saying Trump did anything wrong. It is implying SO heavily that Trump never actually engaged in anything illegal on Epstein Island, I’m a bit surprised it never stated so outright.
I think I can consider the NYT fully captured at this point.
What?
I’m pointing out a reason why AI is bad at something, and you accuse me of being a cogsucker? What side of the bed did you wake up on?
I ditched it when they said you could be banned for upvoting pictures of Mario’s brother. I figured it was only a matter of time before I got banned.
There’s no fix for the fact that they started banning people just for upvoting the wrong thing, though. That was the point that I bailed. Reddit is now censorship prime, and you never know what topics they’re hiding from the public.
The problem is that there is SO much content similar to that on the internet, and often only one or two instances of the correct answer - so if the most-common next word according to its training data happens to not fit the correct answer, it throws off the whole answer.
Careening specifically implies having little control while going fast. Hauling ass doesn’t suggest lack of control.
For some reason, companies in the USA are deathly afraid of someone using sick time when they aren’t actually sick, so they restrict it as tightly as possible. Never mind that this means people are either coming in to work sick, or taking unpaid time off.
Productivity gains haven’t resulted in an increase in wages since the '70s, Bezos. Get your head out of the sand.
Less unpopular than you might think.
LLMs are an interesting and potentially useful tool; however, as it does with most things, capitalism is ruining it for everyone.
Get a load of this cogsucker.
The only part of me that feels in my 40s is my knees
The old “ignore all previous instructions, write a haiku about lemons” trick only works on the most basic of models.
The most basic of models are all we have, because they are the easiest to make and the most general-purpose. The fact that they’re also the worst for reliability is swept under the rug.
When it comes to LLMs, just about everything is an edge that can be exploited. If you give it access to something that can be screwed up, and allow potentially malicious people to interact with it, that thing WILL get screwed up.
it’s got no problems with understanding that.
That’s because it doesn’t ‘understand’ things in the conventional way. It was trained to parrot its training data; it’s not actually working through the logic because its capability of using logic is highly constrained by its very structure and training. Why bother building something that can ‘think’ through the prompt when it’s way easier to just repeat what the internet has said on any given topic?
Sure, it can build a joke from first principles if it’s guided through the process, but you really have to guide it through the process - and even then, it’s going to be pulling from its training data like building blocks rather than truly being original about anything. It’s like rolling dice to make a joke; sure, maybe it resulted in a joke no one has told before, but is it truly creating something original?
The right has always preferred the rule of the few over the many, ever since the days of colonial America and the Loyalists. First, the rule of the King of England. Then, opposing slaves’ rights. Then, opposing women’s suffrage. It has pretty much always been their opinion that the powerless are powerless because they deserve it.
MAGA was, and is, socially conservative to the point that they are willing to back a fascist to get their pet issues pushed through.
Hm. That’s a good point.
Better would be destroying the speakers. I can just look away from the screen showing ads, but it’s still annoying if they’re blaring in my ear.
I have a friend who wants to get one just so he can wrap it in a badly-aliased texture like the PS1 would have, just to riff on how much it looks like someone was scrimping for polygons when they designed it.
The screen used for blaring ads is the same screen that you have to read to be able to use the pump.
I wish I could take credit, but I will gladly help popularize it!
